Fig. 1From: Helicobacter pylori infection downregulates duodenal CFTR and SLC26A6 expressions through TGFβ signaling pathwayEffect of H. pylori infection on CFTR and SLC26A6 mRNA and protein expressions and TGFβ mRNA expression in murine duodenal mucosa and murine serum TGFβ level. Murine H. pylori-infected model was established as described in experimental procedures. a: Effect of H. pylori infection on CFTR and SLC26A6 mRNA expressions in murine duodenal mucosa. b: Effect of H. pylori infection on CFTR and SLC26A6 protein expressions in murine duodenal mucosa. Upper panels are representative blots and lower panels are the comparisons of expression levels between groups. c: Effect of H. pylori infection on TGFβ mRNA expression in murine duodenal mucosa. d: Effect of H. pylori infection on murine serum TGFβ level. Values are mean ± SE in each series. Global P < 0.01; #P > 0.05, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared to controlsBack to article page
